CASSOPOLIS -- Six candidates for the village of Cassopolis' vacant manager position will interview for the opening during a public interview scheduled for this Saturday. Village President Michelle Andrews declined to identify any of the candidates vying to replace former village manager Art Sciorra, who left last month for a city manager job in Ogdensburg, N.Y. Andrews had been filling the manager's role in the interim. "I've been wearing both hats," she said. "It's challenging. Very much so." Saturday's interviews in front of the village council will begin at 8 a.m. and run through mid-afternoon. Andrews said the interviews would be open to the public. She said following these interviews the list will be narrowed to three and those three could be interviewed again. Andrews said the goal is to make an offer to a candidate within the next few weeks. Last month, Andrews said the village is looking for a manager who is strong, experienced with a background in finance and budgeting. Staff writer Jeff Romig: jromig@sbtinfo.com (269) 687-7001
